Details:

I was testing out some of the socket examples with an IPv4 mapped IPv6 address
and found that ip6addr_aton() fails when encountering the dotted quads section
of the IPv4 mapped address

#define SOCK_TARGET_HOST6  "::FFFF:192.168.1.16"

socket_examples_init() calls ip6addr_aton() which hits the "unexpected digit"
case when the first dot is encountered:


if (s[1] == ':') {
...
} else if (isxdigit(*s)) {
  /* add current digit */
  current_block_value = (current_block_value << 4) +
      (isdigit(*s) ? (u32_t)(*s - '0') :
      (u32_t)(10 + (islower(*s) ? *s - 'a' : *s - 'A')));
} else {
  /* unexpected digit, space? CRLF? */
  break;
}
